4. First-Aid Measures
General advice:
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and clean before re-use or dispose it if necessary.
If inhaled:
Keep patient calm, remove to fresh air, seek medical attention.
On skin contact:
After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Consult a doctor if skin
irritation persists.
On ingestion:
Immediately rinse mouth and then drink plenty of water, do not induce vomiting, seek
medical attention.
Note to physician:
Symptoms: tightness in the chest, coughing, difficulty breathing
Hazards: Symptoms can appear later.
Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known
specific antidote, administer corticosteroid dose aerosol to prevent pulmonary odema.
5. Fire-Fighting Measures
Specific hazards:
carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide, nitrogen oxides, isocyanate
The substances/groups of substances mentioned can be released in case of fire.
Further information:
Keep containers cool by spraying with water if exposed to fire. Dispose of fire debris
and contaminated extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations.
Personal precautions:
Use personal protective clothing. Information regarding personal protective measures see, section
8. Ensure adequate ventilation. Use breathing apparatus if exposed to vapours/dust/aerosol.
Environmental precautions:
Do not empty into drains. Do not discharge into the subsoil/soil.
Handling
Provide suitable exhaust ventilation at the processing machines. Ensure thorough ventilation of
stores and work areas. Avoid aerosol formation. When handling heated product, vapours of the
product should be ventilated, and respiratory protection used. Wear respiratory protection when
spraying. Danger of bursting when sealed gastight. Protect against moisture. Clean up
contamination as soon as they occur. Provide basic employee training to prevent/minimize
exposures. Products freshly manufactured from isocyanates can contain incompletely reacted
isocyanates and other dangerous substances, e.g. primary aromatic amines. Industrial cleaning with
aprotic polar solvents (meeting the IUPAC definition) may lead to formation of hazardous primary
aromatic amine (>0,1%). See Section 11.
Protection against fire and explosion:
No special precautions necessary.
Storage
Keep away from water. Segregate from foods and animal feeds. Segregate from acids and bases.
Suitable materials for containers: Carbon steel (Iron), High density polyethylene (HDPE),
Low density polyethylene (LDPE), tinned carbon steel (Tinplate), Stainless steel 1.4301 (V2)
Further information on storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, well-
ventilated place. Protect against moisture. Formation of CO2 and build up of pressure possible.
Danger of bursting when sealed gastight.
Storage stability:
Protect against moisture.
If moisture enters isocyanate containers, CO2 forms and pressure builds up.
Hand protection:
Chemical resistant protective gloves (EN 374)
Suitable materials also with prolonged, direct contact (Recommended: Protective index 6,
corresponding > 480 minutes of permeation time according to EN 374):
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness
Unsuitable materials
polyvinylchloride (PVC) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
Polyethylene-Laminate (PE laminate) - ca. 0.1 mm coating thickness
Suitable materials that provide sufficient protection for industrial cleaning with aprotic polar solvents
(meeting the IUPAC definition):
butyl rubber (butyl) - 0.7 mm coating thickness
nitrile rubber (NBR) - 0.4 mm coating thickness
chloroprene rubber (CR) - 0.5 mm coating thickness
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side-shields (frame goggles) (e.g. EN 166)
Body protection:
safety shoes (e.g. according to EN 20346)
General safety and hygiene measures:
Do not breathe vapour/spray. With products freshly manufactured from isocyanates body protection
and chemical resistant protective gloves is recommended. Wearing of closed work clothing is
required additionally to the stated personal protection equipment. No eating, drinking, smoking or
tobacco use at the place of work. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Hands and/or face
should be washed before breaks and at the end of the shift. At the end of the shift the skin should be
cleaned and skin-care agents applied.

not applicable
Other Information:
If necessary, information on other physical and chemical parameters is indicated in this section.
Substances to avoid:
acids, alcohols, amines, water, Alkalines
Hazardous reactions:
Reacts with water, with formation of carbon dioxide. Risk of bursting. Reacts with substances which
contain active hydrogen.
The product has not been tested. The statement has been derived from substances/products of a
similar structure or composition.
Acute toxicity
Irritation
Respiratory/Skin sensitization
Assessment of sensitization:
Sensitization after skin contact possible. The substance may cause sensitization of the
respiratory tract.
Assessment of mutagenicity:
The chemical structure does not suggest a specific alert for such an effect.
Carcinogenicity
Assessment of carcinogenicity:
A carcinogenic effect cannot safely be ruled out.
Industrial cleaning with aprotic polar solvents (meeting the IUPAC definition) may lead to formation
of hazardous primary aromatic amine (>0,1%). Primary aromatic amines are chemicals that are
regarded as potenttially carcinogenic for humans based on animal testing. Some of these chemicals
are known human carcinogens. No adverse health effects are anticipated if recommended personal
protective equipment and industrial hygiene practices are used.
